“I took them swimming, I fathered them, basically,” he explains of his 18 months working with Brad, and Ange.

Mark admits that the former couple’s biggest fear was the kids being kidnapped, and he even had one crazed fan arrested on suspicion of stalking , a man who had following Angelina through various states where she had been filming, including Chicago and New York.

He said:

“What surprised me was their low level of common sense, they’re not stupid but because of the world they live in, they just haven’t done normal tasks for so long.

“Brad wouldn’t last long because he wouldn’t have any cream to put on his face. He’s too pretty.”

The former soldier also believes that while people like Angelina, they aren’t such big fans of Brad. Despite this, he insists the actor is a joker, once dropping a massive fart in a car and locking all the doors.
